Websites

This subject has been discussed many times in the web forums. Some of the suggestions above would be akin to recommending that a guy buy a mower at Kmart to start his biz with. That's bad advice.Posted via Mobile Device

That's understandable but everybody has different situation. Some of us isn't fed with a golden spoon. Some have to crawl before they walk. I know I started from the very bottom and at some point I grew and continue to grow. That's all I'm saying.

I feel like investing in a website is the best thing you can do for your business if you want to grow ....get it optimized, mobile ready, and keep stuffing with content through a blog to keep it relevant...everyone is either on a tablet or smartphone and searches for just about everything before they buy.....no offense but the do it your self sites look cheap/ cheezy and if i was a potential customer not knowing anything about your business, a cheap website is a huge turn off

Once you get into optimizing your site for search engines I think squarespace is better but so far I've got my godaddy site to the first and second page on yahoo and bing for "lawn care myrtle beach" and "lawn care company myrtle beach".

Anyone who has learned to build and rank their site (crawling and then walking) most definitely was not "fed with a golden spoon". The analogy makes so little sense that it's like me telling you that you mow straight stripes because you were fed with a golden spoon. The golden spoon metaphor means it was handed to you. As for the advice, well, the advice was simply not good. One person says Yahoo sites. Another says GoDaddy. Another pays an extra $24/month for SEO that would be just as useful if that money were to be set on fire and throw in to a river (I checked and came to this conclusion in less than 15 seconds). All 3 were given as recommendations, which, as well-intentioned as they were, the analogy of saying it's that they're the equivalent of buying your company mowers at K-Mart is...100% dead on.
